Alcoholics Should Not Be Pampered
(N.Z. Press Association-Copyright) MELBOURNE, October 13. Alcoholics should not be pampered. Colonel A. Bramwell Cook, Salvation Army chief secretary in New Zealand, said on arrival in Melbourne yesterday. He will lecture to the army’s social congress in Melbourne next week. Colonel Cook said: “Alcoholics will unashamedly play on sympathy. Even a loving wife could ruin her husband’s chance of recovery by pampering him too much.” Colonel Cook said: “An alcoholic must be shown that drinking does not pay. Put a drunk in charge of a drunk. It’s the only way to handle them.”
